Visions of Lucrecia cover

Text in Arabic. Lucrecia, a young, poor and illiterate girl in sixteenth-century Madrid, living in the court of Filipe II, has terrible visions announcing the disastrous end of the Spanish monarchy, including naval battles and invasions of heretics. Fascinated by her predictions, priests and nobles try to exploit her. Rigorously documented and written with strict fidelity to historic events, Roaa Lucrecia is an unforgettable novel about the fate of those who dare to dream.
